Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, Leo Weston here and welcome back to Anxiety
Meet Discipline. Today we're diving headfirst into something that can
seriously level up your day, crafting a morning routine that
sets you up for success. Ever, wake up feeling like
you're already playing catch up, like the day just grabs

(00:21):
you by the collar and starts running with it before
you even had a chance to brush your teeth. Yeah,
me too. But here's the thing, friends, we have the
power to change that narrative. Think of your morning routine
as the launch pad for your day. Just like astronauts
need a meticulous pre fly checklist, we need rituals that

(00:43):
prime us for action, focus and clarity. And trust me,
this isn't about becoming some overly zenguru who wakes up
at four am to meditate on top of a mountain,
although if that works for you, go for it. This
is about finding what genuinely energizes and empowers you. So

(01:04):
let's break down five key takeaways that can help you
build a morning routine that's more than just brushing your
teeth and grabbing coffee. First up, Start with intention. What
do you want to achieve today? Think beyond the mundane
to do list. What kind of impact do you want
to make? What feeling do you want to cultivate. Maybe

(01:27):
it's a sense of calm, a burst of creativity, or
simply a feeling of being in control. Setting an intention
helps focus your energy and guide your actions throughout the day.
It's like having a compass for your morning. It points
you towards what truly matters. Next, ditch the snooze button.

(01:48):
I know, I know that five extra minutes can feel divine,
but seriously, hitting that snooze button actually fragments your sleep
cycle and leaves you feel feeling more groggy than before.
It's like pressing the rewind button on your day before
it even starts. Instead, aim to wake up at a

(02:09):
consistent time every day, even on weekends, to regulate your
body clock. Number three Hydrate and nourish. Your body is
basically a finely tuned machine that needs fuel. Start your
day with a big glass of water to rehydrate after
sleep and kick start your metabolism. Then fuel up with

(02:31):
a nutritious breakfast that provides sustained energy. Think whole grains, fruits, veggies,
the good stuff that keeps you going strong without the
sugar crash. Fourth move your body. Doesn't have to be
anything intense. Even a quick ten minute stretch or walk
can do wonders for your energy levels, mood, and focus.

(02:55):
It's like hitting the reset button on your system, getting
those endorphins flowing and clearing your head for the day ahead. Finally,
mindfulness moment. Take a few minutes to just breathe and
be present. It could be meditation, journaling, or simply sitting
quietly and observing your thoughts without judgment. This practice helps

(03:19):
calm the mental chatter and sets a peaceful tone for
the day. Think of it like priming your mind, getting
it ready to absorb information, tackle challenges, and embrace opportunities
with a clear head. Now, let me paint you a picture.
Imagine this. It's Monday morning. You wake up feeling rested

(03:40):
and energized because you went to bed early and stuck
to your bedtime routine. You stretch for a few minutes,
then knock back a big glass of water, followed by
a delicious breakfast of oatmeal with berries and nuts. Feeling
good already. Now, instead of scrolling through social media, first thing,

(04:00):
you take five minutes to journal about your goals for
the day and what makes you grateful, and Finally, before
rushing into work mode, you take a mindful walk around
the block, breathing in the fresh air and clearing your head.
By the time you get back inside, you're ready to
conquer anything that comes your way. See, creating a powerful

(04:23):
morning routine isn't about being perfect. It's about building habits
that serve you. It's about setting yourself up for success,
one mindful moment at a time. So what's holding you back?
Choose one of these takeaways and implement it starting tomorrow.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
